In later sessions we will talk about eliciting values through more direct means, but for now, be aware they may show up less directly. Values may be hidden where the emotions are most intense. However, as you are listening for values, ask yourself whether it’s really a value you are hearing about or whether perhaps it’s a rule (for example, “I should pay more attention in class”). Also, ask yourself about values as qualities that belong to the adolescent versus those that belong to parents, who may be trying to pass their own values on to their adolescent (for example, “He should care more about being involved and joining clubs at school”).
Marilyn’s father works full time and is less hovering than his wife. ” Within the context of her family, Marilyn has learned that emotions are bad and scary, and can’t be tolerated. She arrived at her therapist’s office highly anxious, feeling afraid of failing, of disappointing others, of her future, and ultimately, of being rejected. She has learned to avoid these unpleasant thoughts and feelings by distracting herself and tuning out, but that is creating an endless cycle that has impacted her ability to study, her academic achievement, her school attendance, and her friendships.
Although all the processes outlined above, such as pliance, tracking, augmenting, and relational framing, are normally developing skills, Marilyn’s inability to discriminate the usefulness, or workability, of her rule following in terms of attaining what matters to her is trapping her in perpetual avoidance. ” As a result, Marilyn is trying to avoid private events. Unfortunately, humans are very limited in their ability to control private events, so her efforts won’t be very successful. Although augmenting can add flexibility to behavior, and allow adolescents to pursue distant goals, insensitivity to direct contingencies increases and is the basis for experiential avoidance and pathology.
